The Friedrich PH14B ZoneAire provides four distinct functions in one convenient unit: air conditioning, dehumidification, fan and heating. It’s ideal for supplemental cooling or heating. Keep units on hand for back up conditioning during outages or quick solves for cooling and heating gaps. Also great for garages, dorm rooms, workshops, home offices, attics and basements—anywhere you need quick, convenient cooling and dehumidification. All models include a remote control. Two cooling only models offer air conditioning, dehumidification and air circulation/fan.

We use it for our very large bedroom-sitting room. This is the best portable AC we have tried (this is our second of this brand)... We tried other brands and they don't compare with the quality of this brand. However the attachment-connection to the window for this model is made of plastic, making the connection with the provided screws nearly impossible and leaving gaps at the connection point.

I bought this portable unit a few months ago,to replace an LG unit that had failed after 15 months. Living in S. Florida, it is impossible to have any activities in the garage, unless you have an A/C unit.Unlike some other units on the market, this is a 2 hose unit. 1 hose sucks in outside air and the other expels hot air. I believe there is some sort of heat exchanger in the unit, as it does not appear to suck air out of the room. Due to the design of the window installation kit, the 2 hoses are only inches apart and this means that the intake sucks in hot air that is being expelled from the other hose. However, the unit does still cool well.I noticed that the air in the garage was quite humid and as I wanted a dry atmosphere, I disconnected the inlet hose from the window and allowed it to suck in air from the room. The improvement was dramatic and not only did the humidity immediately disappear, but I sensed that the cooling was also more powerful. (This may have been felt because of the lack of humidity).According to the Brandsmart salesman and other reviews, Friedrich appears to be the Rolls-Royce of portable air cons. I must say it is very quiet, efficient and performs extremely well. It has an upscale look and comes with a full window kit, including a cap to close off the exit hole, if you disconnect the outlet hose, as I did. I purchased the 5 year warranty from Brandsmart, so even though this unit will get year round use, I have no concerns.Couple of tips. 1/ if you use this in your garage and disconnect the outlet hose, fix it to suck in the hot air near your ceiling. This will make the garage feel evenly cool and very quickly. 2/ Don't use this unit in a hot climate, unless you buy a garage door insulation kit, otherwise the unit will be constantly fighting the heat from the hot garage door. Unusually long review from me, but these points may help others.
